But wouldn't this always be the case on an nfsv4 setup? There is some root folder that contains any child directories being exported underneath it. FWIW If I export the folder by itself and apply the mountpoint option to it, eg. "/srv/somemountpoint *(rw,all_squash,fsid=0,mp)" as the only export line, the mount command *does* indeed fail using -o vers=4.2, however it doesn't fail with an error message - mount just hangs forever. I feel like this is a regression compared against nfsv3 functionality where "mountpoint" or "mp" can be applied to individual exports, and generates an immediate error message for the client. It seems with nfsv4 the mp option only has an effect on the root export, and accomplishes the deed by causing the client mount command to hang until timeout
